There is sufficient epidemiological and biological evidence of increased human susceptibility to viral pathogens such as Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, syncytial virus, metapneumovirus influenza in cold weather. The pattern outbreak the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) China during flu season further proof that meteorological conditions may potentially influence populations coronaviruses, a situation become increasingly evident current global pandemic COVID-19 unfolds.A...
Virulence genes play important roles in pathogenesis of infections caused by S. aureus. The aim this study was to determine the prevalence PVL, eta and mecA aureus isolated from patients South-Western Nigeria.In study, a total 116 isolates clinical specimens submitted laboratories tertiary hospitals South Western Nigeria were used. Antibiotic susceptibility test carried out pattern using multiple antibiotics disc. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) also degree resistant methicillin. PCR...
Dengue and malaria are infections, of great public health concern, especially in sub-Saharan Africa where the burden HIV infection is high. This study was conducted to determine seroprevalence dengue virus IgG antibodies dengue/malaria coinfection among febrile HIV-infected patients attending University Abuja Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada, Abuja.
The clinical symptoms, cellular immune response, and serum cytokine homeostasis during falciparum malaria among children living in endemic regions depend on the parasite densities. This study aims to evaluate CD4
Background: Pulmonary mycosis (PM) poses a great diagnostic challenge due to the lack of pathognomonic and radiological features, especially in absence mycology laboratory tests. This study was aimed isolate, phenotypically identify, determine prevalence pulmonary fungal pathogens antifungal susceptibility pattern isolates presumptive tuberculosis (PTB) patients attending Federal Teaching Hospital (FTH) Gombe, Nigeria. Methods: After ethical approval, three consecutive early morning sputa...
Fungal infections in lungs are being diagnosed with increasing frequency. This is related to the increased immunocompromised status and hygienic factors among patients. In view of this, present study sought isolate, identify, determine prevalence pathogenic fungi HIV-infected patients attending University Maiduguri Teaching Hospital, Nigeria. Between 5 April 2016 27 August 2016, three consecutive sputum samples early morning were collected from individual participants. The inoculated onto...
We describe an extractionless real-time reverse transcriptase-PCR (rRT-PCR) protocol for SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid detection using heat as accurate cost-effective high-capacity solution to COVID-19 testing. present the effect of temperature, transport media, rRT-PCR mastermixes and gene assays on amplification limits detection. Utilizing our heated methodology, were 12.5 1 genome copy/reaction singleplex E- N1-gene assays, respectively, by utilizing E/N1 or Orf1ab/N1 multiplex assay...
Background and Aims: Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are considered major reservoir for genes encoding antimicrobial resistance. The mechanism of resistance persistence UPEC has been attributed to the production biofilm Extended Beta Lactamase (ESBL). This hospital-based prospective study determined how ESBL facilitate antibacterial amongst isolated from catheter urine patients attending University Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Nigeria. Materials Methods: Urine samples 113 catheterized...
As the rage of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic continues to spread globally, much effort is being directed contain it through various efforts - genomic studies, drug discoveries, clinical trials, vaccine development, and innovation diagnostic techniques. However, some pertinent areas involving accurate sensitive diagnostics, immunoglobulin specificity, evolution mutant strains severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2), combination strategy combat still require more...
BackgroundThere are several malaria preventive measures. The availability of a particular method does not guarantee its adherence and effective usage. This eventually may provide the desired results for fight against malaria. Pregnant women at higher risk contracting malaria, therefore it is necessary that they should be protected infection.Objective studyThis cross-sectional study investigated significant roles various measures infection among pregnant attending four selected secondary...
